The children — two 4-year-old girls and two boys, ages 5 and 7 — were all treated by Honolulu Emergency Medical Services at the scene before being transported along with the woman in serious condition to a local trauma center.

None of the vehicle’s occupants were apparently wearing seatbelts, EMS said. The SUV also went through some bushes before hitting the tree.

The incident was reported at 8:53 p.m.
